Two of this weekend's SEC football games feature pairs of ranked opponents. But there's another game on the schedule that AL.com sports analyst Danny Sheridan expects to be even closer.

Georgia (-9.5) and LSU (-8) are each favored by more than a touchdown at home against ranked opponents. The Bulldogs face the 25th-ranked Missouri Tigers on Saturday, while the Tigers host the 17th-ranked Florida Gators.

South Carolina, headed to Arkansas this week, was favored by just 6 points as of Monday morning. The Gamecocks-Razorbacks contest was the only SEC game for this weekend with a spread of less than 7 points early in the week.
